In this episode of Roots Junction, your host Jim Davidson sits down for an interview with guitarist Carl Weingarten.

Carl is a longtime friend of Jim. The two grew up together in the St. Louis suburbs and went to the same elementary school.

Carl has been recording music since he was in college. He began his music career playing electronic music in a band in St. Louis. After relocating to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1992, Carl was exposed to Indian music and profoundly inspired by the Eastern tonalities of the music.

Carl is gearing up to release a new EP in February 2022. The first single of the EP is out today Friday November 12th.

Listen to the interview above to learn more about Carl’s music career and the evolution of his music!
